THE MISFITS HQ
Abutre, the outcast lord

An outcast sentence
During the first eos of the Great Game it was Tzeench who ruled all powerful over the other chaos gods. At that time it was Abutre who led the cohorts of change into war. It was under his watch that the great book of Skelios, one of Tzeench’s greatest spellbooks, was lost to Khorne and ripped apart.

Tzeench saw fit to punish the Lord of Change, stripping his sincilating wings of all feathers and leaving a shameful leathery pair of wings. As if this mockery was not enough, Tzeench commanded him to follow the orders and whims of his pet pink horror, Kitkazir, who was raised to the ranks of exalted demon prince within the ranks of Tzeench’s cohorts.

It was then that Tzeench commanded that Abutre and Kitkazir hunt down all the fragments of the book of Skelios and the Outcast lord was sentenced to follow, advise and ultimately pay his penitence under the command of the exalted horror.

Kitkazir, the exalted horror

The exalted fool
Kitkazir was the fastest, deadliest and most dire of the iridescent horrors of the sincilating cohorts of the great wars. His trickery and spell-dares always meant he was surrounded by only the best of the pink horrors, as any unskilled ones that followed in his antics would soon implode, be ripped apart or suffer any number of thousands of other unsavory outcomes.

It was not a surprize to the Grey Seer that Tzeench named Kitkazir to become the exalted horror. Where Abutre was methodically intricate on his schemes, the pink horror was dashing and bold. The dichotomy of their command often puts the two at the brink of an all out magical challenge, but the Grey seer is always around to make sure Abutre keeps to his penance until the day when the Book of Skelios becomes whole and is presented to Tzeench again.

Kitkazir soars the battlefield surfing over his trusty steed Scallionfaux the dire. This screamer is a master hunter that can track down the magical essences of the spellbook across the immaterium.

THE MISFITS TROOPS
The misfit horrors, living spells

The everlasting chore
Each Pink, Blue or Brimstone horror under the command of the misfits is a guardian of a part of the Book of Skelios. Pink horrors may carry entire spells writhing and swirling under their skin, while blue horrors can hold a single sentence and brimstone horrors sometimes a single syllable or punctuation mark.

The very unstable maelstrom that is the misfit horde means that Abutre’s work of cataloguing and rebinding the spell book is a self-fueled challenge, constantly slipping away and being spoiled by its very nature.

THE THRICE NAMED HQ
The Grey Seer

Watcher and judge
Always watching, the grey seer is here to chronicle the tale of the outcast. Tzeench has trusted his herald to evaluate Abutre’s completion of his task. Ever watchful, his peerless eyes gaze into and out of the immaterium in search of clues for the Book of Skelios living spells.

He is served by his three overseers, the exalted flamers T'kat, K'tat and T'tak who’s constant remarks and jokes are recorded on his tome as the Chronicles of the Outcast are weaved.

THE THRICE NAMED ELITES
The thrice named: T'kat, K'tat and T'tak

The mocking jury
The three twin brothers of the flame, The thrice named T'kat, K'tat and T'tak are the never ceasing inflamatory jury of the outcast’s penitence. They travel alongside the outcast mocking, joking, bragging and challenging his temper and lost authority as a constant test of his dedication to Tzeentch. Should Abutre ever waver on his resolve to restore the book of skelios the thrice named would never stop spilling the undoing of his servitude across the immaterium.

If they ever offer any respite it is to challenge each other to dares and contests, ever trying to prove themselves better than their siblings. Such are the Thrice named T'kat, K'tat and T'tak.

Unbound Living Spells

Shards of Tzeentch's power
Tracked across the immaterium by Kitkazir’s screamer mount Scallionfaux, the shards, pages, words and spells of the book of Skelios are living and breathing entities that are definitely and utterly against the goal of being bound back into the book. They hide themselves in the minds of powerful psykers or disguise themselves as powerful artifacts and natural phenomena. Some can be found burning happily at the heart of stars while others rest for eons at the center of intricate paintings.

Their greatest desire is to elude Abutre’s work and remaign free and unbound.

The Offspring

Scallionfaux’ trackers
These diminutive trackers race across the streams of the immaterium following the scent of the unbound living spells. Once they find their prey they emit an unreality spanning scream that calls their father to their location.

Some Sorcerers hunt them down thinking that they can draw power from them unknowingly drawing the fury of the misfits upon their souls.
